I remember War Of The World's very well more for the soundtrack than reading the book or watching the films and tv series which I've not seen whole just YouTube clips.
Your right about an updated tv mini-series which was aired on the BBC last year then. Here's the trailer for that.
As explained before already my dad had it on tape which he recorded from my Grandma's cd and we listened to that throughout the years a few times I remember on car trips.
It did scare me as a child especially the Martians Ulla crying sound when they attacked but what I remember must about the WOTW's soundtrack was the voiceover done by Richard Burton as the reporter, David Essex as the Artillery Man and the siege on London with rich/poor scrambling together before the boat Thunder Child bravely cut down one of the tripods whilst the boat with the reporters girlfriend and her father went to sea.
For the time that came out I attuned it to a horror story although it was a science fiction one also.
Some years after dad passed I purchased the CD which I've kept and heard sometimes since.
